Restaurant Description
Istanbul Restaurant in San Carlos is a family-owned restaurant serving fine Turkish cuisine. While many Bay Area residents are familiar with Mediterranean fare, very few are acquainted with authentic Turkish cuisine--we hope to change this. Turkish cuisine uses a wider range of meats and sauce than do most other Mediterranean cuisines. Our dishes are slightly heavier, less dry, and more succulent. (We still make frequent use of light vegetable-based purees, like hummus.) Turkish cuisine is characterized by a wide range of tastes, perhaps this is because Turkey sits between two continents, Europe and Asia, which are on either side of Istanbul's famed Bosporus River.
Our family has been in the restaurant business for over 30 years; our first restaurant was and still is in Istanbul Turkey. Bedri Inkaya is our executive chef. Inkaya has been awarded a gold medal by the Turkish Kitchen Association. We invite you to experience our warm atmosphere and the best that chef Inkaya has to offer.
